+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #474721 +++
In my neck of the woods, Evite is a very widely used event invitation system, and it sends out mails with headers like this:
From: Bill Schlep <info@mail.evite.com>
Reply-To: Bill Schlep <bills_real_address@foo.com>
They also include this string in the body of the message: "Did this email go to your junk/bulk folder? Add info@evite.com to your address book to ensure that you receive future Evite Invitations in your Inbox." which explains the motivation (though they have a bug in that they changed the hostname their mail came from without updating the body text to match).
This means that currently, all evites that I get appear, in the compact header view, as though they came from whatever name is associated with info@evite.com, which happens to be whoever I got the evite from when I starred that address. Very confusing.
ping, an up-and-coming web 2.0 invite site does something similar.
If an email has a display in the From header and we prefer that to anything from the address book, that fixes this problem.

Brace on its own line, please.
